Banjolele by Gear4music
Nothing sounds quite like a banjolele. Made famous by George Formby and loved by George Harrison, this combination of banjo and ukulele has a bright sound that’s fun to play.
Small and lightweight, the Banjolele by Gear4music has soft nylon strings that are forgiving on your fingers. It’s easy to transport to get an instant bluegrass/Hawaiian sound wherever you are. With the same tuning as a ukulele, the music you already play will easily transfer, so you’ll be playing in no time.

Distinctive Sound With Great Projection
Louder than a typical ukulele. The Gear4music Banjolele combines the neck of a ukulele with the body of a banjo. It uses a banjo head created by Remo, produced with a specific coating for crisp tones and enhanced clarity. Finished with a traditional frosted look, the banjo head makes each note sound distinct and increases the instrument’s projection.
Built To Be Taken Anywhere
Robust enough for life on the road, the banjolele’s body has been crafted from laminate sapele wood, which is strong while remaining lightweight. The rest of the instrument has also been made from hardwood to ensure its durability, while the oiled poplar laminate fretboard provides an improved responsive and playability.
Easy To Play
Great for beginners, this banjolele uses the same fretboard and tuning as a ukulele. It’s easy to get playing straight away, and music you can already play on the ukulele will transfer. Whether finger-picking or strumming, the Banjolele by Gear4music gives you the combination of banjo and ukulele for a unique sound that’s fun to play.
